Güde Alpha Chai Dao Knife 16 cm - CVM Knife Steel - Handle Scales Hostaform
You probably know the Japanese Santoku. But have you heard of the Chai Dao? This is, besides the Chinese chef's knife, which looks like a cleaver to Europeans, a preferred knife in Chinese kitchens.
The Alpha Chai Dao has a 16 cm long, very wide blade made of rust-free & hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. With the wide blade, you can easily cut larger food and it is also used as a shovel.
Güde knives are hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, from the blade tip to the double bolster. The double bolster, a special feature of Güde knives, provides a counterweight to the blade. The knife is perfectly balanced. The special blend of steel and the elaborate manufacturing process with over 30 manual steps give the rust-free blades with a hardness of approx. 58 HRC a special robustness and durability.
The finely polished handle scales made of Hostaform are embedded in the steel and triple riveted. Hostaform plastic is extremely resistant, very hygienic and comfortable to hold. The Alpha series meets the strict requirements for use in the catering industry and offers the largest model variety.
